Chaplain McCabe easily raised a
million dollars short time ago to
be devoted to missionary purposes
among the breach clouted and be-
nighted savagcs who know nothing
of a Christian civilization which leads
every man 10 cheat his neighbor at
every whirl, and to hunt for the
whirl. a Denver preacher tried the
other day to raise a purse on Blake

three dressed chickens and ten
pounds of sugar. People evidently

This year, some will fall with doubts or fears
While they buckle the armor of resolution on
But no manhood is brave until oceans of tears
soften the heart that time has won,
Then let the dead bury the dead,
Let the past forever remain the past;
Blot out visions of death, hold up your head
And follow the Star that leads You at Last,
The star OF the North that weeps for the dead
And to the plains the Gods have blest,
Then come from the west come from the east

DISADVANTAGES OF BAnnED WIRE.

A reaction has set IN against the barbed
grown to be one of the greatest industries
of the country. The warerooms for the
sale of the different patented varieties Of
the article form one of the most important
sections of the hardware district near Fnl-
ton ferry. The reason of the reaction is
the discovery by the farmers that in sub
shutting the wire for the old fashioned
fences and hedges they have driven away
the myriads Of little BIRDS which nsed to
eat up the worms and similar pests so de-
structive of the farmers crops. These
birds needs the shelter and cover of the
hedges which formerly separated the titled
fields. Even if the fence was OF wood a
thick growth of sedge or long grass grew
up at its base which made 4 retreat for the
birds. But with the clean, mathematical
division made by the barbed wire the fields
became as smooth as a tennis lawn and the
unsheltered birds are forced to migrate. In
their absence the worms thrive and become
legion.
The barbed wire became popular with
many farmers because it allowed them to
sow and reap larger crops, the entire sur
face Of the land becoming accessible,
whereas with wooden fences or hedges
there was always a margin that could not
be plowcd or worked. This marginal strip
in the case Of a large farm made quite a
fraction of additional land brought under
cultivation. But the advantages are seen
to be outwcighed in many respects by the
disadvantages. Not TO speak Of the injury
to cattle, which was one of the first OBJ
~jeetions against the new article, the farm
ers now find, after 4 few years Danish
ment of the birds, that flies and worms do
persistent damage and are practically in
suppressible. The effect upon the trade
here will doubtless make itself manifest at
an early day.-BrooklgR Citizen.

Barry Sullivan thinks that resolnte hard
work is the secret of success and, in 40 in
terview by a Liverpool paper, says: IA
man thinks he is q genius, and as such has
a right to indulge in moods, or, as lshould
call them, whims and fancics. lie be-
comes the slave of his moods until habit
ual indulgence in them makes them moro
than second nature to him. lie can't play
this because he isn't in the cue for it, or
that because it doesn' inspire him, or the
other because il doesn't suit. Then the
fatal habit grows upon him until he be-
comes tho victim of q sort of impotency OF
the will. He flies to stimulants as a re-
source, and that is the beginning OF the
end. Not y drop of liquor has passed my
lips within the walls of u theatre for forty
years. I find my stimulus in my work.

w0MEx-S CLUES IN LONDON.

The first club designed exclusively for
women was founded in London ten years
ago by = clergyman's widow, who saw the
need of such organization for her sex. 1t
now numbers 200. The initiation fee and
annual dues are each two guineas, mem
bers having the privilege of introducing
kinswomen by blood or marriage at a
guinea a person. Ii is considered quite
~aristocratic, %scrupulous care being taken
to look after the antecedenss, but not the
private morals, of all applicants.
The Alexandra is another fashionable
club, which men are never permitted to
enter, even as guests or visitors. Those
women only arc eligible who would be adj
mitted to the queens drawing rooms. 1t
began with 200 members and now has 500.
Initiation and dues are two g~uineas. The
Alexandra has bed chambers, where mem
beers may make their toilet for the evening
or may stay for a limited period at a stip-
ulated price. 1t is two years old and
ilourishing.
The Someryille is a club for working
women; annual dues, five s~hillings; no in
~itiation. Lectures, debates and other en-
tertainments occur every week, when all
subjects, except theology, are discussed.
It is eight years old, has 1000 members
and is exceptionally prosperous. Boston

THE INFLUENCE DE- FOOD.

The food animals consume modifies the
character of their flesh. Turnips yield a
peculiar favor to mutton. Tho flavor OF
mutton from sheep that have lived upon
the highland is different from that OF sheep
which have been raised on the lowlands.
The garlic Of the meadow and some fra
grant herbs modify the flavor of the meat.
Oily food tends to make the fat soft. liens
partly fed on scraps of decaying meat
yield eggs that are at once unpleasant to
the taste and unhealthy. Feeding animals
for human food is, then, Of great import
ance and demands experience. IL is not
enough that food makes fat--it should also
impart an agreeable favor. No living
thing is more susceptible to these influences
than fishes.
